I would assume it's as simple as just Hillary being better connected from her past. The newspaper and TV editors have worked with her for years, her people know their people - it's how stuff works.

Also Bernie likes to position himself as 'the not traditional media/ideas/establishment guy' so they might assume he will keep doing that if he is president. As a business media outlets want an'in' to the president and they know Hillary will play well with them.

Corporate Media is not a non-profit charity.

As much as I would wish Bernie to win as he has all the ideas that I enjoy and already live with in Europe I doubt this works for the US. Hillary is seasoned political bitch and that will work in the US.
